Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

Moreover the LORD answered Job, and said,

Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire {is, that} the Almighty would answer me, and {that} mine adversary had written a book. {my...: or, my sign is that the Almighty will}

Oh that I knew where I might find him! {that} I might come {even} to his seat!

And it was {so}, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me {the thing that is} right, as my servant Job {hath}.

Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous?

Behold, I {am} according to thy wish in God's stead: I also am formed out of the clay. {wish: Heb. mouth} {formed: Heb. cut}

And it was {so}, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me {the thing that is} right, as my servant Job {hath}.

Surely I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to reason with God.
